I apologize in advance if this has been covered before, but should the front wall space between the flush-mount walls be reflective or absorptive? ADVthanksANCE -Jack (curious in Central Texas)

The answer is "yes". :) :shot: It can be either. Personally I prefer to make it mostly absorbent, but sometimes that isn't possible. For example, if there is going to be a large flat screen up there, then you don't have an option! (At least not yet, although they do say that flexible TV screens are coming soon....). Ditto if you want to have a window up there, looking into another room, or to the outside world. - Stuart -
